| Omschrijving | Students meet during the first 6 weeks of the semester as part of so-called thesis workshops to develop a research proposal. They will report on background reading and discuss their research question and the design of their study. During the second half of the semester, students work independently on a coherent and well-argued written account of research based on a clearly defined problem related to the field of L2 learning or teaching. They do so under the supervision of a staff member of Applied Linguisitcs. At the end of the semester, students will give a 20-minute presentation on their findings as part of a student conference. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
